Our mission here is a difficult one since, as we all know, rules number one and two prohibit us from talking about, uh, Fight Club. But we're going out on a limb here to get the word out so you know where to go and what to do this Thursday at Auditorium Shores.
We aren’t saying, we’re just sayin’ that this Thursday a little before 8pm, there may be tons of people who just so happen to show up at Auditorium Shores with backpacks containing pillows. And all those people might, just might, at the stroke of 8pm as indicated by the ringing of the bell tower, and not a moment before, bust out their pillows and engage in a balls-out pillow fight the likes of which has never been seen before. Woohoo! Go spread the word. Apparently a similar public pillow fight in San Francisco had over 1000 attendees. We can do better than that, Austin! Just remember that this is a fluffy, fun fight folks, so please follow the rules. Just sayin’. . .

i hope the pillow fighters clean that shit up afterwards. it'd be shitty to f' up Auditorium shores for this crap.
mjl, have you noticed all the ducks that waddle around auditorium shores? Feathers are biodegradable. Now get out there and have yourself some fun!
Oh come on, mjl - it'll be fun! They f' up Auditorium Shores all the time with cups and chicken bones and dog poop and all kinds of stuff much nastier than a few flying feathers. This thing is a global phenomenon. Spread the word! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillow_Fight_Club
aren't down pillows expensive?
Just buy a cheap pillowcase, arrive at town lake a little early and start chasing the ducks.
even my inner child says this sounds really dumb. ashley, his ed zach words were, "that sounds really gay, just like those stupid 'flash mobs' a few years back."
and why do I have to bring my pillow in a backpack? I usually tote my around in its own convenient carrying case.
an excellent idea, bella.
A pillow carrying case, eh? Great! Now I'll know how to spot you so I can give your inner child a soft whack on the head for growing up too fast.
There's a rumor that "Lunch Box" from the 96.7 morning show might be there. I'm just tellin' ya....

So "Just Sayin" is catching on, eh?
Just do what we do and shorten it to JSA. Cuz the other way has too many letters! I can't be taking up my precious time with words.
I would LOVE to pillow fight Lunch Box. :)
I was there and it was super. Just super. After my roommate tuckered out, I stole her pillow and started in on the melee. Then I saw this cute red-headed girl in an awesome blue dress and brown boots. I even got to sock her with the pillow once or twice. If you're reading this blue-dress girl, you should call me for a rematch.
Um, no idea why that posted three times. I click too much.
